message returned from the server and generates a WARNING state.

C.8.11. Network Services::Web Server (HTTP)
The Network Services::Web Server (HTTP) probe determines the availability of the Web server and
collects the following metric:
• Remote Service Latency — The time it takes in seconds for the HTTP server to answer a
connection request.
This probe confirms it can connect to the HTTP port on the specified host and retrieve the specified
URL. If no URL is specified, the probe will fetch the root document. The probe looks for a HTTP/1.
message from the system, unless you alter that value. Specifying another port number will override
the default port of 80. Unlike most other probes, this probe will return a CRITICAL status if it cannot
contact the system within the timeout period.
This probe supports authentication. Provide a username and password in the appropriate fields to use
this feature. Also, the optional Virtual Host field can be used to monitor a separate documentation set
located on the same physical machine presented as a standalone server. If your Web server is not
configured to use virtual hosts (which is typically the case), you should leave this field blank. If you do
have virtual hosts configured, enter the domain name of the first host here. Add as many probes as
necessary to monitor all virtual hosts on the machine.
